Question

Which point lies on the line described by the equation below?

y + 8 = 4(x - 5)

A. (5, -8)
B. (4, -8)
C. (-5, -8)
D. (5, 8)
E. (4, 5)
F. (5, 0)

Answer 1

you have to solve the equation

Answer 2

so it is y +8= 4x - 5

Answer 3

would i subtract 5 from 8?

Answer 4

i believe so

Answer 5

i got 3

Answer 6

?

Answer 7

yea its three but hold on i think thts wrong

Answer 8

yeah me too

Answer 9

sorry i cant help, im not good with two sided equations

Answer 10

@Notamathgenius

Answer 11

its ohkay

Answer 12

Ok
all you need to do is substitute the numbers for X and Y
(x,y)

Answer 13

so how would i do that?

Answer 14

Ok first you take the equation y + 8 = 4(x - 5)
and you take an answer choice ill use E (4, 5)
You take 4 in the place of the X
and 5 in the place of y
and they are on both side of the = sign so if 4(4-5) = the same as 5+8 that is the answer

Answer 15

yeah im offically confused

Answer 16

A is

Answer 17

just do wht he said, you do the equation y+8=4(x-5) and then put in each number from your choices and then solve them and see which ones equal the same on each side so do each of these equations

A) -8+8=4(5-5)
B) -8+8=4(4-5)
C) -8+8=4(-5-5)
D) 8+8=4(5-5)
E) 5+8 =4(4-5)
F) 0+8=4(5-5)

Answer 18

You have to even it out and make the equation to like if you were solving a simple equation

Answer 19

well obviously

Answer 20

A is the only answer

Answer 21

I have been in geometry algebra and just started algebra 2 a is the only answer that is right.

Answer 22

a was the right answer

Answer 23

yes

Answer 24

I am a hundred percent positive

Answer 25

its the simple slope point formula

Answer 26

can I have a metal
